thanks for all the kind words and encouragement, guys!
corazon, that's awesome that you were in culinary school, but i know being a Mommy takes a lot of work!
i wouldn't forget you guys, htc. i love these boards too much to forget you guys.
PA, i'd love if you guys stopped by and tried the food at the school. i actually think i might try to get a job in the caf.
jennyema, i have to get a bunch of kitchen items, including a set of knives, so i'll get a pic posted of me all uniformed-up and with my kitchen gear if you want.
i'll keep you all updated.
thanks again, guys!

thank you, guys!
mrsdove, i would like to learn to make some new sauces. i love making sauces and would love to learn more about them.
there are a lot of things i need to get squared away before i go to school; i have a lot to do in the next few months. the schooling is contingent upon that. this is just so awesome.

Well, this is just wonderful news...I just knew you'd be accepted..I also know that you will excell in all that you do. Take that school by storm. I'm sure everyone here will be waiting to hear all about it. Wish I could give you a hug..but a cyber one will have to do {{{{{{{{hug}}}}}}}}}}
